According to Power (1908, 58-9) in the townland of Kilcarroon there is a holy well called 'Tobar Uí Eachthigheirn - "Ahearne's Well." This is reputed holy, and "rounds" are still made, as the votive offerings on the overhaning tree branches testify. Locally it is held that the water is specially efficacious for cure of sore eyes'. This exact location of this monument is unknown.
